Guillermo Villacampa, Head of Statistics Unit at Vall d´Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO), shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper he co-authored with colleagues published in Cancer Treatment Reviews:
” ‘Endocrine-based strategies after CDK4/6 inhibitors in biomarker-selected subgroup of HR+ advanced breast cancer’ published in Cancer Treatment Reviews. Great thanks to Alicia Escudero and Tomás Pascual Martínez for their thorough work, proactiveness, and commitment.
Question: What is the best treatment strategy after progression on CDK4/6i?
Previous evidence: Several strategies have emerged in this post-CDK4/6i setting: i) SERDs/SERMs/PROTACs, ii) inhibitors of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, or iii) continuation or rechallenge with CDK4/6i in. However, the multiple potential combinations and the lack of direct head-to-head comparisons constrain evidence-based treatment sequencing.
Study Design: A network meta-analysis was conducted based on 20 RCTs involving 4,716 patients with HR+/HER2- tumours to integrate the existing evidence. Additionally, an extracted individual patient data meta-analysis was conducted. Results are presented independently in tumours with PI3K-AKT-PTEN alterations, ESR1-mutated and wild-type tumours.”
